Vanilla Ice (for Delicious Summer Drinks!) These Vanilla Ice cubes are made with almond milk, sugar, and vanilla. So not only do they add the flavor of vanilla to your drink, they also add some creaminess and a touch of sweetness. They’re perfect for iced coffee and tea. And if you’re too impatient to wait for them to melt in your drink, you can eat them like popsicles too.

Large Ice cubes for pitchers. Make sure that there is a big, level space in your freezer for the muffin pan. Thinly slice up lemons and limes. Place two or three slices of lemon and/or lime in each section of the muffin tin. Carefully fill the muffin pan with water. Freeze overnight. Pop out a few of the ice cubes and place in a large pitcher. Add water or iced tea.

lemon ice cubes for a punch bowl or ice tea pitcher. great idea.

Lemon Lime Ice Cubes for Pitchers: Make sure that there is a big, level space in your freezer for the muffin pan. Thinly slice up lemons and limes. Place two or three slices of lemon and/or lime in each section of the muffin tin. Carefully fill the muffin pan with water. Freeze overnight. Pop out a few of the ice cubes and place in a large pitcher. Add water or iced tea. Notes: You could also make these ice cubes with iced tea so that they don't dilute your beverage as they melt.

such a great idea! large ice cubes for punch bowls or pitchers of iced tea.

Sarasota Lemonade Ingredients: 2 bottles Moscato or other white wine 1 pink lemonade concentrate 3 C of Sprite (more or less, depending on your taste) Fresh raspberries The only thing different that I would do is to blend the lemonade and raspberries in the blender and then add the wine and sprite, reserving enough raspberries for garnish.

Fruit Ice Cubes to add to White Wines

Strawberry Ice Cubes ~ Do it the night before... .just wash the strawberries, cut them in small pieces, place them in your ice cube tray (if you want to go extra fancy use a heart ice tray or any fun shape)...pour some water (I use bottle water....just in case I don't want to ruin any wine with funny tasting water)...and voila....you have fabulous looking ice cubes!!!

These look amazing! I’m trying to make them now actually I have a question – how syrupy is the syrup supposed to be? I messed up and pureed too many peaches and so now my proportions are a bit off…how much does that matter?
Thanks for the lovely recipe!

Also, 12 oz of tonic water? That seems like an awful lot, is there a typo maybe? Or perhaps there’s just something I’m not understanding

Holly-It is indeed 12oz tonic water. You can certainly adjust it to your personal preference as to how strong you like your drink. If 12oz. seems like alot, start with pouring in 8oz, taste it, then adjust from there for your personal preference.

Holly-If you find the mixture to syrupy, strain the peach syrup of the pulp some and dilute with some water if necessary.

15 Fresh, Simple Cocktails for Spring | Strawberry Basil Margaritas

What's a party without a cocktail? But shaking them to order just isn't practical when there are guests to enjoy and dinner to finish. Two words for you: pitcher drinks. These cocktails are full of fresh flavors and ingredients, but they can be made in big batches, refrigerated, and pulled out right when the first guests arrive. Let's start with strawberry margaritas, and move on to Hurricanes. The party's just getting started.&nbsp;

Recipe: Sweetheart Cherry Pies Summary: Mini Pastries for Valentines Day Ingredients pie dough fresh strawberries, chopped Cream cheese sprinkle of sugar 1 TBSP butter, melted Instructions Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line your baking sheet with parchment paper. Roll out your pie dough (I like to do this between 2 sheets of plastic wrap). Cut out shapes with cookie cutter. Sprinkle and stir the sugar with the chopped berries in a bowl. Lay out your heart cut outs on the baking sheet. Spoon on some cream cheese, then spoon on the berries. Lay down the top dough, seal to press with a fork. Brush the top with melted butter. Bake for about 15 minutes or until mini hearts are golden brown. The baking time will largely depend on the thickness of your pastry dough and your oven. Just keep close watch. Cool for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Dust with powdered sugar if desired. Preparation time: 10 minute(s) Cooking time: 15 minute(s)
